VERY FEEBLE-MINDED (Salem Capital Journal Two boys from tho home for tho feeble, minded were detained hero one day last week by tho S. P. bridge crow who notified tho offic ials of the institution who camo and got them. A window was broken In Hev. Driver's chapel car that morning about 4 o'clock, and some ono tried to flag one of the early morning trains. Although they denied doing these things, it is believed that they are responsi ble for the mischief. When asked if they stopped the train they re plied, "No, the brakes did." The egg market Ib glutted, and the price Ib dropping, and tho farmers are mad, and it's too bad eggs don't for i mont. There are no ens.-s of sleeping sick ness in these parts, but SAvoral In the tsanli district have the settus all dayua. A GOOD H. 2'.iO by Sheldon should pass. This measure provides for 11 redraft of the state constitution, the elimination of needless statutory detail- and a thorough nnd competent revision bringing the organic laws of tho commonwealth The bill, if passed, would have people, ami the new constitution, as also be submitted to thu people for ratification. Moreover, the pro cedtire as outlined would require about eight years for final consum mation, so there is sufficient guarantee against hasty action, and the final draft would represent the talent in the state. Through the legislative accumulation of many years, and the in evitable changes of public sentiment, since the adoption of the con stitution, tho present slate constitution is a cojifusing songlomerate of needless detail, repetition, redundancy, which tend to conceal the elemental principles of our fundamental law, and render clarification nnd radical improvment next to impossible. A thorough revision would not but by cleaning the slate would give ment in the forms and methods of Of course, the move is an important one, and being of importance, will probably have difficulty in overcoming the inevitable inertia 'of a session which is conspicuously close, lint the legislature would it would at least start the ball rolling toward placing the slate, consti tution in a modern and abbreviated form, representing the best po litical thought of the present, rather RippI welt . r vu ii-rt "v r-', LARCENY. ' 7 SOME fellow came and swiped my cow. while I was fast asleep, but sorrow does not crease my brow, I do not wail and weep. And if I wept and wailed tit all it is because I'm siek to think a, fellow has the gall to play so punk a trick. For it is plain his heart is wrong, his conscience is a fake; his life will be ho grand sweet song, but just one long drawn ache. He'll skulk about his native land, a haunted moral wreck, in fear that some policeman's hand will grasp him by the neck. He'll drift along from crime to crime, instead of earning kale, and when ho isn't serving' time, he'll be out on bail. And so I don't denounce or hate the boob who pinched my cow; I merely pity such a skate, and mourn his future now. When any person docs me harm, at first my words are grim; I say I'd give an upland farm to even things with him. If I could meet him face, to face, with ardor I maintain, I'd strew his remnants o'er the place like leaves upon tho plain. But -when my royal wrath has cooled, and I have ceased to cuss, I soon regret the things I drooled, and all my foolish fuss. A punishment se vere and strong is sure as things can be to hit the man who's doing wrong but 'twill not come from me. S.
